About the Book

Researching Language, Gender and Sexuality leads students through the process of undertaking research in order to explore how gender and sexuality are represented and constructed through language. Drawing on international research, Sauntson incorporates a fluid understanding of genders and sexualities and includes research on a diverse range of identities. This accessible guidebook offers an outline of the practical steps and ethical guidelines involved when gathering linguistic data for the purpose of investigating gender and sexuality. Each chapter contains up-to-date information and empirical case studies that relate to a range of topics within the field of language, gender and sexuality, as well as suggestions for how students could practically research the areas covered. Student-friendly, this is essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of English language, linguistics and gender studies.

Review :
This book offers students a comprehensive account of the theories, methods and frameworks used in the field, applied usefully to illuminating case studies. Researching Language, Gender and Sexuality is essential reading for those developing their own research projects, but also an effective general introduction to the language, gender and sexuality. Lucy Jones, University of Nottingham, UK This book will spark students‘ interest in language, gender and sexuality and provide them with invaluable guidance for their own research projects. Its pertinent discussion of theoretical and methodological issues in combination with fresh illustrations and an incorporation of recent research render it an excellent resource.
